Maestro FZ-1S Super Fuzz-Tone

I did an etch of the General Guitar Gadgets clone and started populating it today. I wanted to jot down some notes I came across at DIYSB that I may need to refer back to.

To help achieve utility gain replace R12 (10k) with something more like 68k-100K.

“finished another unit this time with 2n5088s (Hfe about 500), BC548B(Hfe about 250) for clipping and BC550C for Q4 (Hfe about 680). It is the best sounding unit of the 3 i have built. And the sustain is really smooth.”
